Territory Sales Manager, Urban Forest Manager

The Territory Sales Manager, Urban Forest Manager (UFM) is an outside sales role responsible for building, owning, and growing a tree care territory for A Plus Tree. This is a hunter’s seat: you prospect new business, win new accounts, and grow a book of recurring revenue across apartment communities, HOAs, commercial properties, and other property segments. Trees are an essential service — every property has them, and every property needs an expert partner to keep them safe, healthy, and beautiful. This is a highly visible, client-facing role with real ownership and uncapped earning potential. The UFM operates both strategically and tactically, mapping a market, prioritizing the right accounts, and personally driving deals from first conversation to close. You set the strategy for your territory, and you do the work to grow it, supported by a team of arborists and operations professionals who handle technical scoping and delivery so you can stay focused on selling. The ideal candidate is a driven, consultative sales professional with strong relationship‑building instincts and the discipline to manage a pipeline and hit a number. You do not need a tree care background, we will teach you the trees. You bring the sales acumen, the work ethic, and the hunger to grow a region. Above all, this role is responsible for generating new revenue and long‑term client relationships while advancing the company’s broader growth objectives. Responsibilities Territory Growth and New Business Development Prospect, network, and generate leads to grow your territory — hunting for new logos, not simply managing existing accounts. Develop and execute a territory plan that identifies the highest‑value opportunities across multifamily, HOA, commercial, and other property segments. Research market opportunities, competitive activity, and growth levers to expand revenue in new and emerging areas. Consistently meet and exceed monthly and annual sales goals. Client Relationships and Consultative Selling Build trusted relationships with decision‑makers, including property managers, HOA boards, and commercial owners with multiple stakeholders. Lead consultative conversations that uncover client needs and position A Plus Tree as a long‑term partner, not a one‑time vendor. Prepare and present proposals one‑on‑one or to small groups and boards, and bring deals to close. Turn one‑time jobs into recurring, contracted relationships that grow year over year. Pipeline Management and Sales Discipline Maintain an accurate, healthy pipeline and provide reliable forecasts to sales leadership. Manage activity, follow‑up, and account information in the CRM and ArborPlus. Track progress against goals and proactively adjust strategy to stay ahead of target.
